Hello Helge, Every po4a-* scripts are deprecated. The right way to go is to use the main po4a script, using an adequate config file. I think that this is documented in po4a(1), isn't it?
Which project are we speaking of? I'm really overwhelmed right now but maybe I could find some time to propose a config file for that project in the future.
